2001 Honda Accord LZ 2.3 from North America

Summary:

Good car, great reliability

Faults:

Only the normal replacement items, such as brakes, tires, muffler, etc.

General Comments:

This is probably the best car I have owned. This is the 4 cylinder (I have heard that the 6 cyl had problems). It is very economical. Other than normal maintenance, this car just runs without problems. It is just about the right size - not too small or too large. Gas mileage is very good. I average about 30mpg. The only issue is the lack of power when the air conditioner is running, but this is expected with an economy car. I just do normal maintenance on it and it still runs and looks like new.

2001 Honda Accord EX V6 3L V6 from North America

Summary:

THE best car to have

Faults:

Transmission was gone at 160000 km.

General Comments:

I use my Accord as a Taxi for 2 years now. And every passenger I have in the car says that this is the best taxi they've been in. Even after 265000 km the car goes through only 1 liter of oil between oil changes. Cost of maintenance is very low compare to GM, Ford or Chrysler products. There is good room in the back for 3 adults.I'm averaging 12,5-13liters of gas per 100 km. in the city, and about 8.5-9 liters on hi-way.

2001 Honda Accord EX V6 3.0 from North America

Summary:

Faults:

Just my light from my gauge that shows the miles its just not bright enough and it goes retarded sometimes, but other than that its all good.

General Comments:

This is a very comfortable car and most reliable car. Well most reliable for its age. Cause other cars from year 2001 aren't reliable most of the time. Well I use to have a 1989 Honda Prelude 2.0si and its went all the way to 330000 miles and still running, I just needed a newer car, but other than the miles its amazingly reliable. that's what B series engine are like very reliable, but I'm loving my accord ex v6 too it doesn't feel as fast, but its much faster. Honda has most reliable car compared too many other car manufactures. It's a very smooth ride.

So, in the 500 miles that you have had it, it is the most reliable car. Any car from 2001 should be reliable - or is it that I drive Volvo and they seem to be just as reliable. By the way, did you mention that Honda's was reliable?

29th Dec 2006, 23:03

Yeah they are not reliable. I drive my gen 6 Accord 35,000 miles a year (I will have 200,000 miles soon) and have had no problems except for the creature that we hit that smashed the bumper and hood. If you say things like it is better than the rest you will get a lot of angry people...

Well dude that's your fault for running into something not the cars fault. And plus accords are very reliable well basically almost all Honda's as someone else said above are reliable cars anyways. well thanx for commenting.

How are you driving your car. I found when I drive my V6 hard the mileage is low. Are you getting 24 with mixed mileage. I got mine when I was 17 and I was getting 27 with highway and alittle traffic. On a recent trip from Minnesota to Michigan I was able to get around 30-32 MPG. That is of course because I drove the speed limit of 65 through Wisconsin and Illinois.

Like the previous commenter mentioned, the mileage depends on how you drive the car. I regularly drive my V6 '01 Accord about 400-500 miles/wk and get about 24-25 mpg combined with about 50% highway driving. I do drive it hard however also. I went on a trip from Washington to Phoenix this summer and on one tank got 34 mpg!! Not bad for 80-85 mph and consistent altitudes on the way down of 5000' +.
